GOD PROMISES TO CARRY US UNDER HIS PROTECTION!

By Gerald Cumby
There are 7 promises we will be seeing whereby God promises and states with authority that He will protect us and carry us through the hazards and dangers of this world:

1. God carries our little ones close to His Heart and gently leads us:

He tends his flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in his
arms and carries them close to his heart; He gently leads those
that have young. Isaiah 40:11

2. The Lord promises to carry us when we are sorrowful and distressed:

In all their distress he too was distressed, and the angel
of his presence saved them. In his love and mercy, he
redeemed them, He lifted them up and carried them all
the days of old. Isaiah 63:9

3. God carries us when we are weak; fights our battles for us, and sustains us with His goodness:

There you saw how the Lord your God carried you, as a
father carries his son, all the way you went until you
reached this place. Deuteronomy 1:31

4. When we fall and cannot carry on anymore, God promises to carry us on His shoulders:

As an eagle that stirs up her nest, that flutters over her
young, He spread abroad His wings and He took
them, He bore them on His pinions. Deuteronomy 32:11

5. The Lord promises to sustain us and rescue us in times of our helplessness.

Even to your old age and gray hairs I am
he, I am he who will sustain you. I have
made you and I will carry you; I will
sustain you and I will rescue you. Isaiah 46:4

6. We have been assigned angels to lift and keep us away from dangers.

For he will command his angels concerning you to
guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in
their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. Psalm 91:11-12

7. He carries us in the palm of His strong hand and helps us confront our fears.

For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you Isaiah 41:13

PRAYER:
Heavenly Father…We can trust in your promises. I understand according to your word even the hairs on my head are numbered. You care for the sparrows; therefore, I know you will care and protect me. Thank you for lifting me up in your arms and carrying me through the storm. Thank You for carrying me when I could not walk one more step. I know You are my God who knows me better than I know myself. You know the future as well as my past. You are present with me now as I voice this prayer. I don’t understand the details, but you do. I trust in you.

Redemption is in your DNA and I know I am redeemed to new life. I rest in your saving grace. Your love sustains me and restores me to new life.
In Jesus name, Amen
